| Abstract: | A new species of Pseudocercospora on leaves of Acer albopurpurascens, a maple endemic to Taiwan, is described. The fungus sporulated on leaf spots caused by Vladracula annuliformis (Rhytismatales). Pseudocercospora camelliicola and Coccomyces sinensis on leaves of Camellia cultivars are recorded for the first time for Taiwan and described and illustrated in detail. In contrast to the situation on maple, both fungal species on camellia caused conspicuous breakage of the epidermis during sporulation, which is discussed in connection with fungal succession during leaf litter decomposition. |
